Letterman's Top 10 for A-Rod
Yeah, some more piling on poor A-Rod, but the list does have a former Cub reference (not to mention Blago), and some of it is funny in case you have not heard them yet. This list of messages on A-Rod's answering machine is from the Monday, Feb. 9th show:
10. "Hey, it's Mark McGwire. Want to get together this week and not talk about the past?"
9. "Joe Torre here -- thanks for helping book sales."
8. "Could you find a steroid that keeps you from choking in the playoffs?"
7. "Are you worried this will taint all the championships you didn't win?"
6. "It's Bernie Madoff. Nice try but I'm still the most hated man in New York."
5. "Michael Phelps here. Got any snacks?"
4. "This is Sammy Sosa. Just pretend you don't speak English."
3. "Michael Phelps again. Did I call you or did you call me?"
2. "Hey, it's Rod Blagojevich -- I'll say you're innocent, if you say I am."
1. "It's Madonna. You got a phone number for Jeter?"
Wonder what kind of "nice" signs the fans at opposing parks will have for A-Rod? Well, having over a hundred million in the bank and sleeping over at Madonna's will hopefully assuage any hurt feelings he may have.

Grew up a Reds fan, I read that once somewhere. Think he used to go to old Riverfront with his pops.

Okay, just so I understand it... in your wildest fantasy, you are in hell. And you are co-running a bed and breakfast with the devil.

How about the nice signs fans will have at his home park, especially if he starts off slow.

y'all are talking like
the fans will…
uh……
needle him this season.
#7 Gets my vote for funniest.
Shouldn’t have been right after the joke from #8 though, they’re too similar. As is usually the case with Letterman TopTen Lists, #1 is the least funny. Good stuff though.

Sorry, didn’t know they even existed ‘til you mentioned it. I’m sure Al will feel free to move me if he so chooses. It’s his sandbox.
Pie, Fontenot, Theriot and Soto up the middle ... yippie oh, oh, oh!
I can't move a post from one to the other.
See this post for an explanation of the difference.

OT and appropos of nothing...
…but if you’re bored and want to kill some time waiting for PCR Day tomorrow, check out this clip of Joaquin Phoenix on Letterman. Then answer the following simple question: Real or hoax?
We are a fever ... we are a fever ... we ain't born typical.
saw that last night.
Ordinarily I’d say hoax, but I’ve been reading/hearing weird things about Joaquin for a long time. And his recent statement about giving up acting to just seemed to solidify that weirdness.
So at first I was waiting for him to rip the beard, glasses, and hairpiece off, but after awhile, I became convinced it was real.
Biggest laugh for me was towards the end when Dave said Farrah was off the hook. Crack me up…
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."
Yeah, I know there's been rumors about Joaquin's mental state for a while...
…but my gut still says it’s a hoax. Dave was going out of his way a little too much to give him shit, and Joaquin stayed in character a little too well. I think if he was really mentally ill, he would’ve snapped at some point. Still, pretty damn entertaining.
We are a fever ... we are a fever ... we ain't born typical.
I think he's channeling Sasha Baron Cohen
